Subwoofer Removal
Hello all,
My old subwoofer stopped working so i bought a used one off ebay to replace it. I tore apart the whole back seat and managed to release the tabs holding the subwoofer in place. My problem now is that i cant get it out. Tilt it forward and it hits the glass, tilt back and hits the bar connected to the rear shade and cannot be dropped from underneath. Any help on how i can get out of this tight situation. Also i attempted to hook up the used Sub and it didn't work either. I went in the menu (1+3 and Mute) and reset the system but still isn't picking up the Subwoofer. Maybe mines isn't bad after all? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thats a lot of great information...I know this is an old thread but I'm looking to replace my sub and I need to know how much depth I have so I can purchase a new sub. Do I need a shallow sub?
